More Man Openly Loving Their Cats

More Proof that the Feline Revolution is Spreading. Next, of course, will be another cat in the Whitehouse, like the days of Bill Clinton, and many other American presidents who owned cats.

NY Times: Indeed, it seems that man’s best friend is no longer a golden retriever, but a cuddly cat named Fluffy.

Although there are no hard (or soft) statistics (it is rare to find an owner, man or woman, walking a cat in public), it seems that single, heterosexual male cat owners are on the rise.

This line of thinking does not surprise cat lovers, many of whom believe that only pillars of virility and masculinity would dare to own one. They are quick to point out other well-known macho cat owners: Ernest Hemingway, Mark Twain, Victor Hugo and Marlon Brando, who reportedly found a stray cat on the set of “The Godfather” and incorporated it into a scene.
